The struggle of an introvert in search of her voice was new territory for me. It takes courage to open your mouth and make music with your voice, something I have no ability to do (but wish I had).

By Eve Krakow ,

Why should I read it?

1 author picked Voice Lessons as one of their favorite books, and they share why you should read it.

What is this book about?

Voice Lessons is a collection of personal essays about a shy introvert's struggle to find her voice―as a singer, a writer, a mother, and a human being. Using traditional narrative and hybrid forms, debut author Eve Krakow explores the early loss of her mother, her innermost anxieties as a young adult, the building of family, the push and pull of heritage and tradition, and more. Juxtaposing shyness in life with boldness on stage, these stories expose the deep-seated need for human connection and belonging.
